Wikipedia policy is quite clear on use of Eras in articles:
It is up to the author(s) of an article to determine the dating system to be used and there must be consistency with each article. In this case, for a non-Christian topic in a non-Christian region of the world, BCE/CE makes the most sense.
This is exactly the situation where BCE/CE is justified. Out of courtesy non-authors should not jump in and engage in revert wars over this. Zereshk is the primary author (having brought this from a stub to a viable article) and has indicated preference for BCE/CE notation. I think it is incumbent on members of the Wikipedia community to support authors who have something to contribute to a particular article. Sunray 16:28, 2005 May 22 (UTC)
